The importance of nitrogen in mass spectrometry
The use of nitrogen gas in the ionization source of a mass spectrometer ensures stable operating conditions, reduces unwanted background ions, and aids in the efficient transfer of ions for analysis.
By creating a controlled environment and minimizing interferences, nitrogen gas contributes to the accurate determination of molecular masses and the identification of compounds in a sample.
Considering this essential role of nitrogen in Mass Spectrometry, LabTech developed a nitrogen gas generator line that produces high-purity nitrogen gas on-demand, eliminating the need for traditional nitrogen gas cylinders.
